Trump’s US Secret Service detail would deliver him to the Manhattan district attorney’s office for fingerprinting and then taking mugshots in offices of the district attorney’s detective squad. While Trump offered no details on why he expects to be indicted, his legal team has been anticipating that it will happen soon and has been preparing behind the scenes for the next steps. The discussions have been about how to navigate the potential indictment for a criminal charge by a New York county grand jury and the choreography around the possibility of an unprecedented arrest of a former president of the United States.

“If this case is still ongoing, during his run for president, you could face a very unprecedented and challenging situation,” Mariotti says. If indicted, Trump would have to go through the same process, where he would be booked into jail, finger-printed, and a “mug shot” taken. “It’d be very hard to find jurors who haven’t been exposed to the news.” Although rarely used, one method to combat this is for a judge to sequester jurors, limiting their exposure to outside influence or information. “Sometimes we see a huge flood of cameras and reporters at the front of the courthouse,” he says. “You would make an appointment basically, to bring your client in to be booked and fingerprinted,” Wu says. “There won’t be a standoff at Mar-a-Lago with Secret Service and the Manhattan DA’s office,” Joe Tacopina told “Most defendants, even if they’re famous, are often not known by prospective jurors or they don’t have a certain opinion about that person. I think it’s safe to say that Donald Trump is different.” Wu doesn’t anticipate many unusual logistics in the procedures if Trump is indicted, but believes that security would be heightened—similar to measures for other high-profile political figures or celebrities. The hush-money deal, allegedly crafted weeks before his presidential win, could also put Trump in jeopardy of violating campaign finance laws. Trump was invited to testify before a grand jury in early March. The offer to testify, which Trump declined, is required before any indictment.

"No one tells us anything, which is very frustrating," Tacopina told CNBC. Trump said he learned about his supposedly imminent arrest through leaks from the "corrupt" Manhattan District Attorney's Office. "THEY'RE KILLING OUR NATION AS WE SIT BACK & WATCH. "PROTEST, TAKE OUR NATION BACK!"

Trump’s post cited “illegal leaks from a corrupt and highly political Manhattan district attorney’s office”.

If Mr Trump is charged with a crime, it would be the first time an investigation into his inner circle actually impacted the former president himself.

If Mr Trump was unable to avoid that outcome, it would almost certainly lead to his impeachment or removal via the 25th Amendment, which allows the Cabinet to remove a president who is unable to perform their duties. Were conviction on state charges to occur alongside a Trump election victory, it would likely lead to a massive legal fight to determine whether there was a way for the former president to worm his way out of serving time. Even if he were tried and convicted in one of the so-called “quick trials” he has repeatedly cheered China’s government for operating in the cases of drug offences, Mr Trump could still run the entirety of his presidential campaign from a prison cell.

And the political dynamics of the legal ‘Get Trump’ story are intriguing – in that they end up both suiting Biden and Trump. And then nothing changes and Americans will probably still have to choose between Donald Trump and Joe Biden in the 2024 presidential elections. In the coming days, further indictments and allegations against Trump are expected – chiefly over his ‘hoarding’ of classified official documents at Mar-a-Lago. Yet the prosecutions and the stories around them go on and on, like a sort of tabloid Huit Clos. Team Trump argue that the 45th President’s corrupt political enemies and the deep state have ‘weaponised’ the justice system against him. But there’s also no denying that eight years of attempts to prosecute him on manifold fronts – Russia, Ukraine, tax, incitement to violence, hush money, fraud, and more – have so far failed, even if he has been impeached twice.

That raises the possibility of Mr Trump having to stand trial in the middle of the 2024 presidential campaign, or even after Election Day, though putting a ...

Though a person familiar with the Trump operations said they were not actively organizing protests, Trump’s comments raised alarms about how his followers might be incited to act.

"We do not tolerate attempts to intimidate our office or threaten the rule of law in New York," Bragg said in an email to staff obtained by ABC News.
